About the plays:
"The Dragon in the Mix" by Sue Ann Gunn is a frolicsome fairy tale farce that’s fun for all ages. In one large palace, combine a queen, her mother, ladies-in-waiting and assorted princesses. Let simmer. That’s the recipe our four mischievous fairies — Rumor, Gossip, Hearsay and Innuendo — are cooking up in this witty fairy tale spoof. After the fairy foursome add a dragon to the mix (for piquancy), they have to either find a hero to slay the beast or satiate it... and legend has it that dragons like to eat princesses! Meanwhile, bored of the pampered princess life, the queen’s three daughters set out to see what they can do. ’We’d rather be eaten by a hundred dragons than face one more of Aspidistra’s lectures!,’ exclaims Princess Daisy, referring to one of their stuffy governesses. When the fairies toss three princes lost in a forest into their concoction, they’re cooking up quite a meal!
"Three Doors to Death" by Keith Jackson is an interactive murder mystery! The audience actually decides which way the action will go and, eventually, who killed Gordon Forrest. The unpopular Forrest is mysteriously murdered during a rehearsal of an old British thriller, Three Doors to Death. Plenty of people had good cause to wish him gone. Things heat up when the homicide detective appears and, with the audience to guide him, has the murder re-enacted. Before deciding which direction the plot will go, the audience is given clues, motives, and suspects (the actors, director, cleaning woman–even the corpse!). The audience gets to decide, not only who the killer is, but how the story will end. Will the killer go to jail or be allowed to escape (and what an escape it will be!)?
Both plays are presented with permission of Pioneer Drama Service.
